Uzbekistan Classic


Trip description

The classic route through the ancient cities of Uzbekistan - it is a journey through the most famous historical sights, everything that is the most grandiose, the most important, what is to be visited without fail to form a full picture of Uzbekistan and the Great Silk Road in the mind.

Medieval mosques, medersas and minarets, the dazzling light of the contemporary capital, craftsmen's workshops, tasty Uzbek cuisine, noisy markets in the direct vicinity with narrow silent alleys, burning Asian sun and penetrating coolness at night, striking contrast to the imagination of deserts and oases will remind you for a long time of the aura of the oriental culture!

The classic Uzbekistan trip is designed for groups. You can join any group that suits you in terms of dates and duration of the itinerary.
